MERCHANDISE SALES
When you exit fuel sales, you are prompted to enter the first merchandise department or stock
number appearing on the report. Up to 18 merchandise departments or stock numbers may usually
be listed on shift reports, and up to 27 merchandise departments or stock numbers may usually be
listed on end-of-day reports. (If you exceed these limits, you will have to make reductions in the
numbers of fuel departments, adjustments, or tenders you have.)
Merchandise departments
Merchandise departments range from 1 to 99 on both the Profit Point and the Check Point. For

Stock numbers
Stock numbers range from 1 to 65,535. There is a major difference between Profit Point and
Check Point stock numbers:
•
Profit Point stock numbers are three-to-five digits (100-65,535).
•
Check Point stock numbers are two digits (1-99, the same as merchandise departments).
A modifier digit on the Profit Point allows the use of the same stock number for different sizes of
the product (see the next section, Modifier digits on the Profit Point for details).
Because merchandise departments do not have modifier digits, the modifier digit is used on the
Check Point to distinguish between merchandise departments and stock numbers, since both are 1-
99.
